Verse 1:
[Em Em]You took your [C C]coat off and stood in the [G G]rain,
You were always [D D]crazy like that
[Em Em]I watched from my [C C]window,
always felt I was [G G]outside looking i[D D]n on you
You were a[Em Em]lways the mysterious one
with [C C]dark eyes and careless hair,
You were f[G G]ashionably sensitive, but too [D D]cool to care
Then you [Em Em]stood in my [C C]doorway, with nothing to [G G]say
besides some [D D]comment on the weather


BRIDGE:


Well in c[Am Am]ase you failed to notice,
In c[C C]ase you failed to see,
[G G]This is my heart bleeding before you,
[D D]This is me down on my knees


CHORUS:
[C C]These foolish g[D D]ames are [G G]tear[D D]ing me [C C]apart
[C C]You're thoughtless [D D]words are [G G]breaki[D D]ng my h[C C]eart
You're breaking [Em Em]my heart


Verse 2:
You were always [Em Em]brilliant in the [C C]morning
Smoking your [G G]cigarettes, [D D]talking over coffee
You philos[Em Em]ophies on art, Baroque mo[C C]ved you,
You loved Mozart and you'd s[G G]peak of your loved ones
As I c[D D]lumsily strummed my guitar
[Em Em]You'd teach me of honest things
[C C]Things that were daring, things that were clean
[G G]Things that knew what an honest do[D D]llar did mean
So I h[Em Em]id my soiled hands behind my [C C]back
[G G]Somewhere along the line I must've go[D D]ne off track with you


BRIDGE:
[Am Am]Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for [C C]somebody else
[G G]Somebody who gave a damn,
[D D]Somebody more like myself


REPEAT CHORUS.


[E E]You took your [C C]coat off and stood in the [G G]rain,
you were always crazy like t[D D]hat
